I challenge anyone that remains troubled in life to sincerely apply these recommendations


Set a target

Targets are the foundations to making your life look interesting. Also, all aspects of your life merits no less than one! Here is a dig into mine:

I plan to live in the now and feel more prominent, and more noteworthy, fun, satisfaction, joy, empathy and watching over myself as well as other people; to have some good times, and to be open to my resourcefulness, farsighted capacities and enthusiasm.


Hold it in that “picture of you”

When you consider yourself, do you think about a blissfully glad individual? No? Well let's change that, should we?

Yourself-idea should keep you bolted into a reality that will boost your self-idea. Change the vision of yourself, and you will change your existence.

Confession: I am upbeat and getting to be noticeably more joyful every single day!


Search for motivations to being cheerful

It doesn't take a lot of this to move from self-indulgence (or some other constrictive states) to cheerfulness. Keeping an appreciation diary is a standout amongst the most astounding approaches to remain upbeat and oozing a stream of good things coming to you.

Note : you should do this decisively. You should compose a vast list that you feel genuine love and thankfulness towards. The list is worthless if you are not genuinely thankful after viewing it.


Enhance yourself.

It's difficult to feel good in a situation where you feel frail and miserable. Furthermore, a few people have justifiable reasons/motivation to feel along these lines, and maybe satisfaction evades them. You're not one of them.

If you are perusing this blog, you should be prepared to acknowledge your heavenliness, your energy and your capacity to make your own particular reality. Be that as it may, it doesn't occur without any forethought and it doesn't occur just by saying it.

If you find yourself in a situation where you have convictions that deny your identity, that hunt you down and makes you feel you don't worth an extraordinary and energizing life you totally worship or desire ? At that point, change them.

And really if you totally want to an overwhelming happiness or joyful life full of excitement. You should develop and expand yourself in all arrears, keep growing it should be your priority. It is possible, just Commitment.


Moderate, moderate, back off

Multi-tasking is one of the greatest things that steal our joy and happiness.

What? You couldn't live without that? All right, fine. In any case, you should surrender 'multi-thinking' so you could get the joy and happiness you deserve.

Majority of us centered our mindset on things that we left around undone, we quit focusing on what it is we are doing. And we find, whatever we doing at the moment being not enjoyable, What's more, then we lose our happy and upbeat once again.

Give yourself 5 minutes per day, or 5 minutes to 3 times on each day to make a rundown of what is on your plate that needs to be achieved that day, and whatever is left of your time be conscious of it and take it slow and easy on yourself.

Feel the sun all over as you stroll to the parking lot. You should focus on that store representative while attending to you; send them a little love. You should truly concentrate on that email and just that email, not the over 102 new messages in your inbox.

This is a supernatural fix people. Attempt it. You'll like it.


Respect your needs and what strengthens your spirit

As an individual we all have things that sustain us, gives us strength and encourage our spirit and invigorates us. Some of these are things we need genuine.

For instance I love isolation. On the off chance that I don't get some time for myself for self-reflection at any point maybe once per week if not every day, then I am not a cheerful person. Life could gets hard and I get irritable for these reasons. So for me, solitude is an actual need in my life.

Also physical exercise is a need. When I can hit the gym, swim, ride that bicycle or play tennis, everything else I do gets simpler.

What are your needs? Check yourself are you really giving yourself the chance to fill them?

Furthermore, what enriches your Soul? Things that enrich your Soul aren't needs, they are inclinations that offer awesome gain. They are the things that you loves and adore that make you more of you.

Being in nature may nourish your Soul. I love walking alone at night, Excellence may nourish your Soul. Music may do this for a few. Side interests do this for others.

Giving yourself the authorization and time to do the things that you support is a vital component to remaining cheerful.


Take great care of you

Your body has needs, which if not paid attention to, can adversely affect your physical and enthusiastic bodies. Great clean eating routine, exercise to fit your personality, and unwinding exercises to lessen stress should all be a piece of your ordinary lifestyle.

In a situation where these are missing in your life, please include them. A body undernourished, loaded with poisons, and worried is not going to add to your satisfaction, joy, happiness and well-being or your capacity to deliberately make your reality.


Get expert help (in the event that you need any)

As an individual we all need a little help some of the time. And this should go for our emotionally and mentally state.

In the case that you are managing exceptional sadness, misery, uneasiness or other weakening enthusiastic states, discover somebody to guide you through this until the point when you too can oversee getting to that joyous state without anyone else.


Request help (require it or not)

At long last, bear in mind to consult your concealed companions. In spite of the fact that this appears last on my list, it is really the principal thing I do when I end up in a state not as much as aggregate delight!

How would you request for assistance? Simply say something like (in your mind), "Hello Higher Self, Soul, advisors, and whatever is left of my group, I plan to feel cheerful, and I'm not there this present moment… please help me to arrive at that point"


Be free

Permit yourself to be who you are; permit yourself to laugh big, and also to cry when it's necessary to, permit yourself to fail brilliantly, and to make stuff, permit yourself to fall apart, breakdown, and get back up again permit yourself to be unique and different permit yourself to reach out to your dreams.


Don’t take yourself so serious

As an individual you shouldn't take yourself too serious hold yourself with a light hand you should laugh at your weakness sometimes with pleasure.

Because when things get too serious stress emerges, just raise your shoulders with an “oh well…” have it known that it’s never as huge or life devastating as your mind thinks.
Joyous people understand that whatever mistakes or error that happens will work itself out.


Don’t self-ruminate

I remember a childhood friend of mine growing up he's always staring at his own belly button.

The truth is happy people don’t fixate on problem and themselves alone They don’t over-examine a problem or an issue.

When a problem start to get stuck on their head, they divert their attention on something else which will be more productive.

I always remind myself not to have it all figured out because it could be frustrating get outside. Go back to your work. Plan something fun.


You should not compare

The truth is comparison has been contrasted to a little death that kills. When we compare ourselves to other people we hurt and belittle ourselves.

People who are happy knows that they’re no better or less than another person. Someone will definitely be at a “more evolved place” and someone will always be “less-evolved.”

Moral: always think of how to do your best in any situation and that’s all that matters.


You should always make amendments

For instance if something isn’t going your way, when your mood is down or when you feel “off,” you should stay curious and be self-aware.

When you eat something that makes you feel bad, why eat it? observe that glass of wine the night before and why it makes you feel crappy or sad in the morning or that slice of pizza that made you bloated or that ice cream that caused you to crash and losing your focus and energy.

If you feel heavy or stuck, just take a walk, or do something different than your normal routine, you could even meet up with a family and friends.

When you are feeling agitated or stressed, just get some extra sleep, meditate or even yoga or take a hot bath


You should be of service to yourself and to everyone around

People who are happy always want to give back. Not because they have plenty to share. They love to volunteer, they even take time out to help a friend, and also offer to connect people to others for their betterment, and aren’t in need of getting anything back.

Commit yourself to service but also be aware of how to take care of yourself. When your energy gets exhausted so always remember to not give away to the point that you lose your own mental/physical/emotional/ and spiritual well-being.

You should have some kinda loving boundaries where you care for yourself so that you have alot to give.


Selecting friends that will uplift you

Now this is very important when we engage in friendly conversations that are supportive, loving and uplifting with friends interested in your improvement, having this kind of friends put us on a faster track to our own betterment.

When you spend time or you hang out with someone and you don’t feel great afterward, just see less of that person and seek out other friendships.

You should know which friends expands your happiness and so you should just nourish these friendships.


You should be more interested in your peace of mind

We should always remember not to get carried away with the highs it's important we focus more on experiencing peaceful existence..

If your life is at peace, you have a relaxed life and have a great chance to sustained happiness and contentment.


Make use of your Brian

There is a saying ordinary is extraordinary.

You should consider receiving pleasure from enjoying the simple joys in life, and that are connected to your senses. This awareness gives some amount of significant moments of happiness and joy.

You will be surprise with the pleasures you receive in the common things like

Warmth of a teacup in your hands on a very cold winter day or savour of a round chocolate dissolving on my tongue.


You shouldn't make your relationships by an end to all

You should stop used to think the person you are in a relationship with will be there to give you happiness rather than increase it.

People who are truly happy knows too well that those they are in relationship with are like an addition to them or their lives not like a compilation of them. Live a full life so that you have so much to share at the end of the day

Take this as a loving reminder: try as much as possible not to rely on your partners to light your moods, cure you, or fill your empty vacuum . The same goes to your partner as well, always remember it’s not your duty to do that for your partner either.

That is it…..I wish you the best remain happy folks , I know it’s possible, and I know you deserve it too never give up stay happy.

This is an amazing post. It is important we derive joy and happiness from what we do. Joy is the lubricating factor in the journey of life.
Once joy is dwindling, breakdown is imminent.
Many salient points are contained herein @dreamchasser. Thanks for sharing.

I'm glad you like it

This is so adorable..i am in a bitter mode reading yr post.. Reading this put a lil dimple on my cheek i need to be happy ..tired of this mode swings at all time.. I need help surely and i need 1 month vacation. Away from nigeria without my fone

I think this is the point for you ma'am.

Multi-tasking is one of the greatest things that steal our joy and happiness.

I got that from the article. Insightful.

I no ...not my fault...

Lol... I understand ma, Just saying...We say the rest in PM... smiles... Our happiness is actually with us.

This is an awesome post. I surely relate well with this. One of my excerpt is

Give yourself 5 minutes per day, or 5 minutes to 3 times on each day to make a rundown of what is on your plate that needs to be achieved that day, and whatever is left of your time be conscious of it and take it slow and easy on yourself

This is obviously needed since it is great to take account of how profitable each day has been. No one sets out to have a fruitless day, but without looking back and taking account things that have been achieved, we may not fair better.

Taking account of things achieve or to achieve daily keeps us focus, I'm glad you can relate Sir

Taking care of oneself is a necessity. Some people are too busy to remember personal hygiene.

You right, personal hygiene is very important

Really liked your post! Recently I'm very interested in the art of "living in the now", meditation and spirituality. This post came at the right time :)
Some of your points sound very obvious and natural but that doesn't mean they are easy to achieve for everyone. You (me especially) need to work on that stuff to get a clearer and happier mind.

Educating,Motivating and impressive post

Thanks for this very enlightening piece, boss. Wish I'd be able to consistently adopt them.

This is very amazing great piece to get all votes;We MUST be happy with what we do.

Wow....nice post you have got here. This is really going to make a difference in my life. Thanks @dreamchasser
